After initial inspection of the product found battery terminal broken. After following all instructions, cranked it up first time (by recoil). Wouldn't start the second time (by recoil) rigged up the broken battery post and was able to get it started with electric start. Let it run on gas power with no load for 5 hours. (Should have battery secured separately in packaging) Haven't put a load on it yet. Plan on doing so after break in.

Was scared at first. Box was delivered pretty beat up but product was not damaged at all. After filling the oil and checking the battery, unit started up with no problems. Using propane as my fuel source it was very smooth running and the noise level was less than I expected. Will update after my first real usage.

I have seen many reviews and compared this model with the Champion 4650. I decided to go with this one. It has not disappointed so far. Only downside was it took 3 weeks to get to my house do to the carrier held it for 2 weeks at the local facility. None of Westinghouse's fault.

I got this a few weeks ago, just read the manual, I'm gonna try it out tomorrow but in the process of getting it set up I decided to register the product. In order to get the freebie I had to agree to do the review but as noted above I haven't even use the product. These guys should allow one to write the review later on.

Apparently these generators are so popular that my last one got stolen. I really like this thing. It has the best features out of any generator. It's quiet, can run on propane or gasoline, has remote start, has a fuel tank big enough to run all night and keep the AC on. There's actually no other generator that has all these features.

Set up instructions were clear and concise. Packaging was solid. Dialing in the correct oil level was somewhat tedious because of it previously being test run with oil at the factory. Residual oil in the motor resulted in only partial use of the otherwise exact quantity of included bottled of oil. Connected the battery and propane it fired right up an flawlessly powered through its break-in hours. My only gripes are it not having an OEM quick disconnect set up for the propane and the short propane hose. I very nearly went with a Champion for the quick disconnect feature. Only other suggestion is to move the rolling handle set up so it lifts from the top of the unit which would make deployment of the handle much more efficient.

Happy with the purchase it replaces a Coleman 5000 which was very loud, this one is very quiet. My only issue is the side panel on the carb side does not sit flush if there was a screw instead of a post in that spot it would be perfect but it hits the carb and pushes it out slight. Only cosmetic so it can be lived with.

Still trying it out but I like all the features, some things are not well thought out, doing an oil change requires trying to get your hand in a small opening and around a large wire to work with the oil plug, the opening could be bigger and better placed to allow easier access to the plug, accessing the larger panel by loosening several screws that can be removed with a screwdriver but the last is a bolt that requires a 10 mm socket, why not just make them all screws, hope there is nothing else as I use it on my RV, overall it is very good.

The 4500 DF has met or exceeded my expectations to this point. From initial setup to a flawless break in period. Now I'm ready to take it on the road. I ordered the high altitude kit but so far at 5500' I have not had a reason to install it. The duel fuel option is great.

I purchased the iGen 4500DFc after many hours of research over a 2-week period. I went back and forth between inverters and larger open-frame models. In the end, I decided I don't really need to power a lot of items at once, but I want the capability to power more than just one or two small items. This one fell in between, and when combined with the dual fuel capability, CO sensor, and quiet operation, I knew it was the right choice for me at this time. Power outages are fairly infrequent and short duration in my area, so I hope to never need it. However, I will set it up and maintain it regularly so it will be reliable insurance if it is needed.
